About 1221 20th St

BRAND NEW UPDATES!!! The lovely Lost Bayou Historic District is where this house is situated. In 2024, this two-and-a-half-story home underwent a complete renovation that included new flooring, ductless split air conditioning and heating systems throughout, updated kitchen, and bathroom fixtures. The large living room opens to two spacious bedrooms with high ceilings, original transoms, and elaborate molding work. A vintage chandelier welcomes you. There's an outdoor solarium off the bright kitchen, with lots of storage underneath. Two sizable, air-conditioned additional rooms that run the length of the house are available in the finished attic. Nestled behind the 17-foot-tall seawall of Galveston, this in-town home is only just a stroll from the beach, The Strand, and other local attractions! Schedule your showing today!
